Quakefinder: A Scalable Data Mining System for Detecting Earthquakes from Space

Abstract

W e present an application of novel massively parallel datamining techniques to highly precise inference of important physical processes from remote sensing imagery. Specifically, we have developed and applyed a system, Quakefinder, that automatically detects and measures tectonic activity in the earth’s crust by examination of satellite data. W e have used… (More)
